Add support for REST API and Harvey Networks #66

Open joeldesante opened 1 year ago

joeldesante commented 1 year ago

This update will include the first increment with regards to support for the backend API of Harvey along with support for server networks.

Harvey server networks is a feature that allows for the linking of multiple related servers. In the case of Harvey, this is useful when announcements need to be made on all related servers at one time. Rather than the administrator of said servers copying/pasting the announcement multiple times across the network, the bot will propagate the announcement across the network automatically.

Joining servers across a network also has the added benefit of opening a door to further cross-server interaction and integration for Harvey. For example, historically we have had issues with users who advertise services that violate the honor code, these users can be banned across the entire network with one command rather than having to ban them in every server they pop up in.
